Discussion Part 1

Lucifer re-appears in the room that holds all the memories and knowledge of the dead. Many have sought the knowledge contained in this library and some have gained its power at the cost of their very own souls.

Greed, Desire and the sound of Despair fill this ghostly library their wails could drive anyone crazy but for its creator its like the most beautiful melody. He keeps walking as if looking he is looking for something and finally, he stops at one of the shelves. He grabs the book he was looking for inspects it before he continues walking towards the center of the library.

Once he arrived, he walks towards his chair as he passes his couch and a well-lit fireplace. Ironic as it would sound but the fire could seem to be giving a warm welcome to its master. As if dancing at seeing the sight of Lucifer once Lucifer sat down. Someone appeared in the couch he could be described as anything but normal. He appeared to have taken the form of a popular novel character the Mad hatter. Yet not the same for the Mad hatter for no matter how crazy he might have seemed there was still a soul inside of him. This being did not seem to have one for his very presence was filled with malice that made the air thick and hard to breath for any normal person.

"Lucifer do you believe that this time bringing this bug will truly make any changes this late into the game? Do not tell me you are getting soft and truly believe this bug can truly make a difference." Said Beelzebub as he laid down on the couch. "Of all the champions we have picked from mankind's history he is by far the weakest"

Lucifer without looking up at Beelzebub looks at his book as caressing it "Beelzebub do you know what makes humans interesting to watch?" Without waiting for him to respond he says "What makes them interesting is how much they struggle when you add a bit a pressure and a bit of hope. You just can't crush them you have add just enough pressure to the point they can feel hope. Hope comes from their darkest moments when they find what they themselves is truly fighting for. Once that hope is born humans turn into a wild beast." Lucifer paused "This is why HE is different unlike our previous champions he has not been crushed to the point there is nothing left"

Lucifer then opens the book as he begins reading the story "Do you know the story of snow white? Knowing you Beelzebub your probably don't so I'll make it short. Humans love to write books about a hero coming to save the maiden in distress. They believe once the hero has proven himself worthy, he will be able to find what he has been looking for his entire life. He will then kiss the sleeping princess and a world of magic and love will fill the air. But you know this is what makes this my favorite book, because this is human desire. Once you get a hold of what they desire, and you manipulate them to do what you want all that awaits them is world of sweet pain"

Lucifer closes his book as he takes his glasses off "After hope is gone you know what takes over? Anguish, then pain and finally loss but if you give them a reason for their pain then what is born is determination and hatred. True hatred Beelzebub, hatred that can turn someone to make acts that are no longer human is what will lead to change. That is what is going to happen to this "bug" and he in turn will change the course of this game"
